Dataset format[edit]
The dataset should be stored at Wikimedia commons, in the Data namespace, as a tabular data (.tab) file. Currently, the file format should be JSON, representing a three column table, where the first column is the three-letter ISO country code, the second is the year and the third is the value. In the future, CSV-files may be possible.
Steps:
- Download a .csv file, for example from https://ourworldindata.org
- Trim to three columns in a spreadsheet program
- Upload it at https://www.csvjson.com/csv2json . Select "parse numbers".
- Copy the json output and paste it into Notepad. Find and replace { with [, and "Country:" with nothing
- Paste this data below the heading data, at for example [:commons:Data:Child Mortality.tab]
Be aware of some minor bugs.
